How Put on a Lace Front Wig
Lace front wigs have transformed the way women and men style their hair. Their unique design allows them to meld with your natural hair and gives you loads of options for styling your look. Many celebrities embrace what this type of wig can do for them and you’re sure to love the way one changes your entire hair style instantly. With all of that in mind, this guide will help you put the wig on properly, achieving the look you’re going for with ease.
Step-by-Step Guide to Applying a Lace Front Wig for a Seamless Look
There are two types of lace front wigs. Pre-cut eliminates the need to trim the wig before you wear it. Uncut styles typically have some excess hair at the hairline that you can cut to the desired style. If you cut your wig, be sure to get close to the knots, but not so close that they become undone. You can also choose lace front wigs in a variety of colors and styles so you can match your natural hair or try something completely different.
Many people choose a lace front wig to conceal complete hair loss, but if you have any natural hair on your head, you will need to conceal it for the best results. Pull your natural strands away from your hairline. You can secure them with flat clips or pins, if necessary. Use a bit of styling gel or spray to hold natural hair in place. Allow whatever product you choose to dry completely before continuing.
A wig cap protects a sensitive scalp from chafing due to the wig. It’s not required and is a personal preference. Some people avoid a wig cap because they can be hot and leave your head sweaty. Others prefer them to offer a barrier between the wig and the sensitive skin of the scalp. If you have natural hair, the wig cap will go over it. Place it at your natural hairline, then gently pull it back just a bit. Now you’re ready to place your wig over the cap.
Now that you’ve prepped your natural head and/or scalp, you’re ready to put your lace front wig on. If the wig closely matches your natural hair texture and color, pull your wig cap (if you’re wearing one) back just a little bit, to allow the wig to mesh with it. Use the straps at the nape of your neck to adjust your wig, tighter or looser, as needed to get a snug fit that doesn’t squeeze too tight. If you’re new to wearing a lace front wig, it may take a bit of maneuvering to find the fit that works best.
Lace front wigs are a great choice if you have hair loss, but they’re equally as fantastic for changing up your look and trying something new. Whatever your reason for wanting a wig, ABC Wigs is here to help. Visit us today to find your perfect style.
